[Intro]
Soft neon breathes through the avenue
Shadows murmur in a velvet blue
A thousand whispers in the air
But I’m just waking, listening there
[Verse 1]
The streetlights blink like patient eyes at night
Watching over windows, catching everyone in sight
I walk the seam where silence meets the glow
Alone inside a crowd that’s moving slow
[Pre-Chorus]
And every honk becomes a memory in flight
Every heartbeat echoes through the chrome and light
[Chorus]
You’re the city’s quiet hum, a friend I barely know
A thousand distant voices who never tell me so
In this crowded solitude I find a steady glow
In the watchful streetlight’s gaze, I’m not alone, I’m not alone
[Verse 2]
Passing cars leak thoughts like rain on a pane
Fleeting, flickering, then they’re gone again
I gather glances from the glow on glassy skin
A tether in the night where strangers still begin
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear a whisper travel down the avenue
A soft recall of someone who once walked through
[Chorus]
You’re the city’s quiet hum, a friend I barely know
A thousand distant voices who never tell me so
In this crowded solitude I find a steady glow
In the watchful streetlight’s gaze, I’m not alone, I’m not alone
[Bridge]
If I’m a note in a chorus of strangers, you’re the chorus line
A beacon in the distance turning ordinary nights divine
[Chorus]
You’re the city’s quiet hum, a friend I barely know
A thousand distant voices who never tell me so
In this crowded solitude I find a steady glow
In the watchful streetlight’s gaze, I’m not alone, I’m not alone
[Outro]
Let the night unfold its gentle light
I’ll carry this glow into the morning light
I am here, in the hum, part of the flow
Not alone, not alone, not alone
